As colder weather looms across Maine—from Portland to Bangor—homeowners are looking for reliable ways to stay powered, save money, and keep their families safe. That’s why now is the time to consider a solar and battery system from Suncovia.

Winter in Maine means more than chilly temperatures—it means unpredictable storms, potential outages, and higher electric bills. Solar plus battery backup is the smart, secure way to prepare.

Why Batteries Are a Must-Have for Maine Winters

  1. Backup Power During Outages
    When snow, ice, or wind knocks out the grid, your solar battery can keep essential appliances running—heat, lights, refrigerator, and more.

  2. Store Power for Night Use
    Solar panels generate energy during daylight, and batteries let you use that power at night or when rates are highest.

  3. Reduce Grid Reliance
    Maine’s electric rates are among the highest in the nation. Battery storage helps you use more of your own power—and less from the utility.

  4. Stay Safe and Comfortable
    With battery backup, you don’t have to worry about frozen pipes, spoiled food, or losing contact with loved ones during storms.

All Backed by the 30% Federal Tax Credit

When you install a battery alongside your solar system, both qualify for the federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC). That means you can deduct 30% of the total cost from your federal tax liability.

On a $28,000 system, that’s $8,400 in savings.
